Assumptions behind these numbers
- Model assumptionStart charge 100%, arrive with 15% in reserve, charge up to 80% at each stop.
- Model assumptionUsable battery: 100% of each vehicle's listed capacity (the listed capacity may be gross or net; no correction is applied).
- Model assumptionSpeed: consumption starts from each vehicle's listed real-world efficiency, times a speed factor of 1.00 (1.00 = no speed adjustment).
- Vehicle dataWeather: each vehicle uses its own hot, normal and cold factor from our vehicle data, so consumption = efficiency x 1.00 / factor. Hot is 25 °C and above, normal is 10-25 °C, cold is below 10 °C.
- Model assumptionCharging speed: average power = min(vehicle peak kW, 150 kW cap) x 0.60 taper, plus 5 min per stop.
- MethodRange, energy and cost all use the same consumption figure. Energy is measured at the battery; charging losses are not included.
- MethodCharging stops are estimated from range and the charging window. They are not verified charging stations.
- Market dataCost: estimated energy cost at the average electricity market price for Spain, day-ahead market, as of 18 Oct 2026 (0.090 EUR/kWh); public charging tariffs are usually higher.
- Market dataCO2: energy x grid average carbon intensity of 75 g/kWh (Spain, energy-charts, as of 18 Oct 2026).

The 878-kilometer drive from Madrid to Palma requires approximately 850 minutes behind the wheel, a journey that presents unique logistical challenges for EV drivers due to the absence of a direct road connection across the sea. While the route is not cross-border and both cities enjoy a normal climate with no extreme temperature effects on battery range, the practical reality is that reaching Palma necessitates a ferry crossing, as no bridge or tunnel connects mainland Spain to the Balearic Islands. The drive from Madrid to the coast, likely through varied terrain, will demand at least one or two intermediate charging sessions given the distance, with the final leg requiring sufficient charge to cover any local driving upon arrival. The normal climate in both cities means range estimates remain standard, but the ferry crossing introduces an unavoidable break where charging is not possible, making pre-boarding charging strategy critical for a seamless journey.
